Escambia
County is one of Florida's two original counties (St. Johns being the other),
established on July 21, 1821. The origins of its name are unknown, although
it is believed to be taken from an Indian word. Pensacola is the county seat.
The city was established in 1698 and during its history has served as the
location where the transfer of the Floridas from Spain to the United States
was arranged as well as the first capital of the Territory of West Florida.
